An Anti-War Poem... Feel free to add your own |

Edited on Tue Sep-25-07 07:46 PM by MrScorpio
Threats, insults and finally, violence
Our blood co-mingles, unable to tell yours from mine
A pool, red, sureness is that it's all human

lies all abound a year wasted overseas with shame returned

2. I look into your eyes, |

I see my own, blinding you I blind myself, together we see what wasn't

4. If I can't erase . . .. |
|
If I can't erase the shock and horror of a young pre-teen boy, his arms ripped and blown from his body on both sides, how do our soldiers face this every day and keep their sanity --
they don't --

proof positive impeach him and give peace a chance
a war based on lies innocent lives vainly taken this madness must cease

...And you look at the country they call 'the land of the free' you will see people trapped inside a cage of gold
holding the key is no man and power and greed, they fill the need for a sustaining force to keep the balance swayed
take my hand I will lead you take their hand they will feed you - lies
walking a path through generation's graveyards see the bodies lying about what future can we expect when thoughts do not connect
billions of miles from those who rule us their blindfolds tied around our eyes the darkness closes in our minds die from within
take my hand I will lead you take their hand they will feed you - lies
Edit: puntuation

I sweat obsequious, heretic, a Missouri and Texas incursion. In toto resplendent, on which is stamped, "Our Nation," with liberty and justice for sale.
